Optimum charge carrier mobility in organic solar cells

Open access

Abstract

In organic semiconductors the recombination mechanism is of the Langevin type, controlled by the mobility of the charge carriers. As a result, in organic solar cells the mobility simultaneously controls both the carrier extraction and the losses via carrier recombination. The authors demonstrate that the balance between carrier losses by extraction and by recombination leads to a distinct optimum in the carrier mobility with regard to the efficiency of organic solar cells. For low mobilities recombination losses limit the performance, whereas the efficient extraction at high mobilities leads to a reduction of the open-circuit voltage.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
